A Quick Hello from Stacey Davidson – Amor’s Newest Year-Long Intern
Our new Year-Long Intern started yesterday! We are so excited. Here is a “quick hello” from Stacey:
After four months of raising support, six days in a car, 32 video blog updates along the way, and one very long trip to IKEA, I have finally arrived at the Amor Ministries Global Headquarters in San Diego, Calif. And I couldn’t be more thrilled!
Originally from Dunedin, Fla. (near Tampa), I am a 2010 graduate from the University of Florida, GO GATORS!!!, with a major in public relations and minors in business administration and non-profit management. Previously, I have held public relations internships with Peppercom Strategic Communications in New York City and March of Dimes in Gainesville, Fla. Most recently, I was an assistant account executive at C.C. Communications in Clearwater, Fla.
I began working with Amor as a trip participant with the Harborside Christian Church high school youth group in 2004. It only took four days in Mexico for me to completely fall in love with the families, the work God is doing, and Amor as an organization. I knew from that first trip across the border that my time at Amor was far from over. As much as people like to make fun of my pink wardrobe and “Legally Blonde” personality, I think I even surprised myself with how much I enjoyed being covered in cement dust and living in a tent.
One summer, I remember specifically as I was working on a roof and nailing tar paper, an Amor summer intern, Lyndsie, mentioned to me about Project Nexus, Amor’s summer intern program. Two years later, I was on a plane to San Diego to become a Nexus volunteer in 2007. That summer was one I will never forget. I made some amazing friends and experienced God in some incredible ways.
Throughout my time at the University of Florida, I returned to Amor twice as a Project Barnabas volunteer and also brought some friends along with me. While my senior year of college was in full swing in 2009, I felt God tugging on my heart to take a year and serve Him in some capacity. As I researched mission trips and organizations, I kept being pulled back towards Amor. Nothing else felt right to me, and I knew that God was calling me to come back again.
My Amor Year-Long Internship with Amor is mostly centered with the Ministry Relations Team, specifically with public relations and media relations. I will also be working with volunteer coordination including both Project Barnabas and Project Nexus. I am excited to be able to use my education here, and I pray that God blesses my time and allows me to both learn from and contribute to His ministry through Amor.
